As Variety reports, screenwriters Peter Hoare and Chris Lilli will pen the script, which “centers around the true story of four best friends from Vancouver who travel to San Jose to watch their beloved team, the Vancouver Canucks, play in the NHL's Western Conference Finals. What ensues during that 24-hour period becomes fodder for one of the greatest bar stories ever told.”

Doug Banker, founder of BroBible and Five All in the Fifth Entertainment, and producer for this project, says the feature is a natural fit for the new production company. “We're big hockey fans at BroBible/Five All, and the original Deadspin article definitely made the rounds among the team last year. We're excited to be able to partner with State Street to bring this epic story to the big screen.”

Hoare and Lilli's raunchy comedy, “Everybody Wants Head,” is scheduled to shoot this fall. George Tillman, Bob Teitel, and Mike Flavin will produce for State Street Pictures (the “Barbershop” franchise).
